Stressed! I Really Need A Drink!

[atkins_again]

I'm graduating from college in 2 weeks, but first I need to get through finals aka **** week. On top of this, work is kicking my butt, and I have a gazillion things to do for my parents, who arrived last night for my graduation.

I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo stressed right now. I'm meeting my friends for Cinco de Mayo tonight and I am so tempted to just break Atkins and have a few drinks. I really need it.

HELP!

Do you need it? What did it ever do for you? So you will go off plan and then what?? Feel bad tomorrow? Feel guilty? Your weight loss may stall for a few days and you will feel bad.

Stress is tough and I sympathize because we all have to deal with it at some point. Why don't you relax and have a good time with your friends tonight? Drink something Atkins friendly and get yourself a fabulous dinner. Steak and salad or fajitas with no tortillas. Something really yummy that will remind you that you can eat so well and still lose weight. Good luck and try not to stress out too much. Soon all this will be a distant memory.

with all respect and honesty "NO YOU DONT NEED IT" ,
not only will it mess up the atkins plan your on , but its not good for your body at all. i know your stressed right now, just treat yourself to a hot bubble bath with candles lit all around , or something like that that will relax you and take your mind of the stress, I have not drank in 13 years and I get stressed out alot!. I know there are lots of other ways you can find to relax and unwind. bless you friend.
